Dehydroisomerisation of α-Pinene and Limonene to p-Cymene over Silica-Supported ZnO in the Gas Phase
Silica-supported zinc oxide possessing acid and dehydrogenation functions is an efficient, noble-metal-free bifunctional catalyst for the environment-friendly synthesis of p-Cymene from renewable monoterpene feedstock by gas-phase dehydroisomerisation of α-pinene and limonene in a fixed-bed reactor. The reaction involves acid-catalysed terpene isomerisation to p-menthadienes followed by dehydrogenation to form p-Cymene. Dehydroisomerisation of α-pinene produces p-Cymene with 90% yield at 100% conversion at 370 °C and WHSV = 0.01–0.020 h−1. The reaction with limonene gives a 100% p-Cymene yield at 325 °C and WHSV = 0.080 h−1. ZnO/SiO2 catalyst shows stable performance for over 70 h without co-feeding hydrogen.
